The Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD) is the community college district serving Los Angeles, California, and some of its neighboring cities. Its headquarters are in Downtown Los Angeles. Over the past seventy-seven years, LACCD has served as educator to more than three million students. In addition to typical college-aged students, the LACCD also serves adults of all ages. Indeed, over half of all LACCD students are older than 25 years of age, and more than a quarter are 35 or older. LACCD educates almost three times as many Latino students and nearly four times as many African-American students as all of the University of California campuses combined.
